Embroidered Animals: Wild and Woolly Creatures to Stitch and Sew

Lively and accessible embroidery motifs and sewing projects that highlight the wonder and beauty of the animal kingdom.

Delight in the wild and woolly world, one stitch at a time! Yumiko Higuchi once again invites us inside her lively imagination—this time exploring her striking new collection of embroidered animal designs. From elegant birds to wild wolves and wonderfully simple sheep, the twenty-five motifs in this book offer both a modern flair and an organic true-to-nature style. Stitch your animal friends into a feature for your home or take them with you wherever you roam by incorporating them into any of the sixteen simple sewing patterns included here, such as bags, pillows, bookmarks, sachets, and more. Both beginner and experienced embroiderers can mix and match animal designs and sewing projects according to their own interest, skill, and the materials available to them.

Featuring beautiful photographs, clear step-by-step instructions, and detailed diagrams, this book is an inspiring and playful guide for animal lovers and embroidery enthusiasts of all levels.
